    45% Failure rate!

    A 4 year old model Y revision just reached the age of mandatory safety check here in Denmark.

    Article in Danish:
    https://fdm.dk/nyheder/nyt-om-trafik-og-biler/tesla-skandalen-fortsaetter-naesten-hver-anden-tesla-model-y-dumper-til-syn

    Translation of the headline:
    The TESLA Scandal continues, almost every 2nd Tesla model Y flunk safety check.

    The previous record was held Buy Tesla model 3 with about a third of the cars failing!
    The average for all brands is about 7%.
    And a similar priced VW ID.4 is less than 2%. LESS THAN!
    Without question the VW is way better quality, and even the cheapest Chinese cars we can get here have way lower failure rate than Tesla!

    So very obviously Tesla and safety are not things that go together.

        WTF?!
        I know Sweden is way more liberal with what is considered street legal than Denmark,

        systemet kräver i sin nuvarande form ständig förarövervakning

        Translation: The system in its current form requires constant driver supervision

        So it’s more like “assisted self driving” which of course is an oxymoron.

        I åratal har Tesla sålt funktionen ”total självkörningsförmåga”

        Translation: For years Tesla has sold the function “fully autonomous (self) driving.”

        I wonder why they are allowed to advertise that?
        But it seems it is following EU regulation, so I guess we can’t blame Sweden for it. But those shitty Tesla cars shouldn’t be street legal in EU even without FSD.
